First, thanks for the compliment. The gun began life as an OM Ruger 357. The top strap was welded up, heat treated and machined in the OM Single Six style with an OM SS rear sight used. The front sight was made from sketches I supplied and has a pinned blade. Between this and the drift adjustable rear the point of impact is fully adjustable. The hammer is from a SBH with the sides machined and surface ground flush with the body. I like the lower thumbpiece the SBH affords but prefer the standard width rather than the "fat" SBH thumb piece. The cylinder was given the Colt "blackpowder" chamfer and the barrel was crowned in the rounded Colt style. The grip frame is from an Old Army (steel), the grips were made by CaryC of CLC Custom Grips from sparted maple (IIRC) and the case color was done by Doug Turnbull. Alan Harton of Houston performed all of the work. It is zero'd at 50 yards with the 250 gr Keith over 7.5 grs of Unique.
